Are there any non-SSD hard drives whose speed gets close to taking advantage of sata 3?
I ask because I am looking to buy a secondary 1 TB (non-SSD) hard drive for my new computer that will be arriving soon. The primary hard drive is an SSD. I have sata 2 and sata 3 ports to hook this new hard drive into, but if I'm not going to get close to sata 3 speeds I might as well stick with a sata 2 cable and sata 2 port.
References, benchmarks, experience, etc. are welcome!
